Lovely Virus update...................................

Posted by Fred Albury(Aztec Reptiles) on May 01, 2002 at 10:39:33:

Hi guys,

I have been absent for a litle while, a virus got into my computer, went through Norton and Mcaffee and crashed my hard drive and basically destroyed it. A new hard drive and some really good anti viral protection later I am back.

This lovely beast cloaks itself in messages from people you KNOW as it hits their address books and mails itself out, it also comes in other forms includeing "Message from microsoft"

Being pretty poor it came at a bad time, truly.
I believe that Rob got a similar virus to mine.
With no real financial gain, and targeting people they dont even know, I cant firgure out why people create these things. Oh well, things to ponder.

Sincerely,

Fred
